"It doesn't appear to be too popular" correct
Why is this? Maybe the retro look, and other group members know little

This was only a suggestion and want the pro's and cons.

Google have thier own Google Chat and Web Chat Gadget and has been

Where people just asking where to find this and how to do that.

"As for the interactive sampler, I do have a version for the Maps API.
I just
need to clean it up and put it in the documentation. Perhaps next

Sounds great looking forward to it.
